The UC Santa Cruz Cross Country Club is open to runners of all abilities, who are current students at UC Santa Cruz, including graduate students. We do not make any cuts! Throughout the year, we meet every weekday - and on Saturdays for Long Runs - at the East Field Shed. These practices are optional to be flexible to students' busy schedules. Come as much as you're able!
The team hosts the bi-annual Cardiac Pacer 5 Mile Run in Fall and Spring Quarters. We also compete on Cross Country and Track races around the Bay area. Last year, we competed in Santa Maria, Berkeley, Marin County, and Santa Barbara. These are for the more competitive runners that want outlets for racing.
Whether you are just looking to run with others or trying to train for your next race, we are the club for you. Practices begins at the Athletics and Recreation Jogging Path around the East Upper Field. Practice times and other events are detailed on our Instagram and Discord.
